Not sure of the Virginian unit was used on NS H85 (which interchanges with the B&H) today. Number 1069 was spotted on the oil track at Gang Mills about an hour ago. Since the B&H/NS interchange happens in the morning now, the chances of it happening before dark today are slim.

The Pennsy unit is coming to Horseheads. Number 8102 is the lead unit on NS 60X, which is a unit sand train. The other locos are a CSX GE and an NS SD60M. The train was last spotted in Elkhart, IN as per the HU website but that was over 13 hours ago. NS 60X has also been confirmed by several FB reports.

The HU website is accurate about 95% of the time- I've used it to intercept the Erie, Interstate, NKP, Penn Central, Southern, Virginian and Wabash units. That other 5% when it's wrong is rather annoying. HU is only as good as the railfans who make the reports.

Also there's few rotten apples who would screw us as well. That did happened in past few times (rare).

I'm not sure what happened to #4001. The latest HU report could be bogus... or NS might have wyed the power in Buffalo. At this point, I guess we'll have to wait for further HU reports and/or photos of NS 310 on Facebook.
